カバー化粧品の種類と使い方

抄録

Methods for treating bruises, vitiligo, and scars are improving year by year, but they often take a long time to work and are not always effective. In those cases, the use of cover makeup can improve the patient’s QOL (quality of life). While cover makeup cannot treat the issue itself, it causes no discomfort and can boost users’ confidence with its high coverage. It can also be used whenever and wherever. Early versions of cover makeup had a thick, powdery finish, but advances in powder and emulsification technology have led to the development of foundations that can sustain a natural finish over a long time. Patients can easily apply cover makeup at home if they learn techniques from a professional beauty consultant. This paper briefly covers the history of cover makeup in Japan, the latest types and features of foundation, and techniques for different kinds of cases.
